[QUOTE="backwoods83, post: 586952, member: 29890"] I heard some fellows talking at a 1000yrd match one day, they were talking to a guy that was using a 20-250AI with an 8 twist and someone was making 63grn vlds for him, everyone asked him how it done so good in the wind, he said "its like shooting a needle at 3300fps the wind doesn't bother it much", with that said a 22-250 or 22-250AI with an 8 twist shooting 80grn amaxs or bergers at close to 3200 or the 88grn berger match (not vld) at 3100fps can be very effective on prarie dogs at 1000yrds or yotes to 700, and it will be a pleasure to shoot, I would go for the improved version though, not for the little gain in velocity, but for the fact that 22-250 are notorious for stretching cases.
